Many Robinhood investors like cannabis stocks, here is everything you should know about the three most popular marijuana stocks.

The most popular marijuana stock is Aurora Cannabis.  While Aurora stocks have plunged 60% so far this year, investors like the stock because of name recognition.  The company has been in the news over the past few years, and was ranked as Robinhood investors’ favorite stock in December 2019.  Aurora is a leader in Canadian adult-use medical and recreational markets.  They have relatively low costs and a high production capacity.

Canopy Growth is the second most popular stock.  There has been positive growth in popularity for this stock, in December it was ranked in third place among Robinhood users.  CEO David Klein has most likely been helpful in increasing the popularity of this stock.  Klein, former CFO of Constellation Brands, has taken steps to reduce company spending and work towards profitability.  Constellation upped its stake in Canopy Growth, reaffirming their commitment to Canopy’s role as a leader.

Lastly, Cronos Group is the third most popular cannabis stock on Robinhood.  Cronos hasn’t been in the news much in recent months, but their acquisition of Redwood has created a strong presence in the U.S.  Cronos also has a partnership with Ginkgo Bioworks to develop cannabinoids using a fermentation process.

Should you buy these stocks?

The issue with these stocks is that they all continue to lose money.  This is a bigger issue for Aurora because they don’t have large partners like Canopy and Cronos do.  Aurora has a large amount of debt, making it a bad pick for investors.  Cronos also needs to move further towards profitability before it becomes a smart pick. However, David Klein has steered Canopy in the right direction and is a good pick for investors who have patience to wait for success.

The Evolution Of The Classic Stoner Character in Movies and TV


It’s taken TV and movies featuring stoner characters a long time to catch up with the reality of marijuana culture in the United States. Historically, Hollywood has ignored cannabis all together, then demonized it, misrepresented it, and used it as an easy punchline, before finally giving way to the more nuanced, low-key reality of life in a country where over half its states have legalized the drug for medical or recreational use.

Here, The Bluntness charts the changing depiction of marijuana users in film and TV over the last 85 years or so, and digs in to what these stoner movies might tell us about the changing cultural attitudes around pot in pop culture.

The Truth About THC Candle: Cannabis Candles & How to Make Your Own

There are several different ways to consume cannabis, and some of them don’t even involve actual consumption. Cannabis candles are beginning to take over the candle game, allowing cannabis enthusiasts to enjoy the smells they’re used to having to cover up and hide: the danky goodness of weed.

As cannabis becomes less stigmatized in modern culture, people are beginning to come out and admit to their cannabis use. While smoking weed used to be something people felt they had to keep on the down low, the culture is becoming increasingly mainstream and the scent is now sought after rather than condemned. Many cannabis candles feature complex scent profiles, including notes of amber, which contribute to a rich and layered aromatic experience.

Sex on Shrooms: How to Prepare Yourself

If you've tripped on psilocybin (a.k.a., magic mushrooms) before, you're already well aware what an intense experience it can be. And if shrooms can take an average activity like listening to music to an entirely different universe, you can probably imagine what sex on shrooms might feel like.

As intense and amazing as mushroom sex can be, it can also be an incredibly negative experience if you're not careful. Most psychotropic substances are best experienced when you curate the right set and setting, and sex on magic mushrooms is no different.

Iranian Weed: Epic Mag Strain

The sprawling mountains of Iran bloom with native flora every year: elms and ironwood trees, tulips and daffodils, even something called Dwarf Eelgrass. But scattered throughout the forests and flowerbeds, like in neighboring Afghanistan and Pakistan, another flower has been thriving for thousands of years: cannabis.

Through Iranian genetics sourcing, cannabis in Iran is collected from specific regions, emphasizing the unique and wild plant varieties. Mag Landrace is just one of the Persian nation’s homegrown strains, beloved for its intense indica effects, deep green and purple hues, and abundance of trichomes, resins and oils that make it ideal for smoking and hash-making. It’s finally in the states and available for patients and casual users alike to discover and delight in, and here’s why.
